Good advice about keeping the batteries in sets. That's one of the things I don't like about rechargeablesit's too easy to be lazy and get them mixed up. If you mix old and new batteries, your pack's performance declines to that of the old battery. In a worst case scenario, the newer batteri

I second the suggestion to use Sanyo Eneloops. I haven't used them heavily, but my impression is that they sacrifice some capacity but reportedly have less loss when in storage and should last through more charge/discharge cycles. I had bad luck with the Energizers and Duracell rechargeables, so I
